✘ Casual users generating 1–2 barcodes per month (use free online tools) ✘ Those needing real-time data-linked barcodes (use ExtendScript + font)

Adobe Illustrator CC 2015 or newer (Mac OS X 10.12+ / Windows 10+).

The extension creates codes one at a time ; it does not support native batch or bulk creation within the plugin. For bulk needs, the standalone Softmatic BarcodeFactory is recommended. Common User Considerations

Use Illustrator’s Window > Attributes panel to ensure no overprinting is happening on the bars. Barcode bars must be solid black (K100) with no overprint.
